Is there anyway to upgrade my Ipad 2 from ios6 to ios7 and NOT ios8?

I have an Ipad 2+cdma with ios6.0.1 installed on it currently.
I have a specific app that works in ios7 but not in ios6 or ios8
The app is KeyPad Plus Pro https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/keypad-plus-pro/id503713794?mt=8
This version ios 6.0.1 causes this app to crash (on attempting a manual network connection to TightVNC the app crashes). However the app will not work with ios8 as stated from app developer. (I also have an Ipad mini+GSM with ios 7.0.6 on it and this same app works flawlessly. So I know it will work with ios7.0.6)
Is there any way to upgrade from ios 6.0.1 to ios7 but not ios8?
I have tried installing ios 7.0.6 to this ipad using Itunes and shift/restore using a downloaded ios7.0.6 version but I get an error (3194) saying the Ipad could not be restored. It seems my only option is upgrading to ios8.1.3
Is there ANY way to install/upgrade to ios7 onto this Ipad without upgrading to ios8?
If I brought my ipad to an Apple store would they be able to put ios7 onto it?
My ONLY options seems to be to buy/find another an Ipad with ios7 already installed on it.
I'm kind of stumped here.
Any suggestions or ideas?

A device can only be updated to the highest iOS version that it supports, which for an iPad 2 is the current version i.e. 8.1.3
An Apple store won't be able to do it either, iOS 7 is no longer signed by Apple for iPad 2
Have the developers of the app given any indication that they are working on fixing their app ?
